Instrumentation for
Kinematic Analysis
High-speed cameras:
Speed of 500 to 20,000 frames per
second.
Provides ample number of clear data
points for analyzing the fastest of human
and implement motions.
A system that permits single frame
advance so that measurements may be
made of the image.

Three-Dimensional (3D) Systems
Camera systems configured to collect data in
three planes.
Simplest method is to position two cameras
with axes perpendicular.
Cameras must be carefully synchronized.
System must be calibrated in 3D using a cube
or a multi-armed device.
Direct linear transformation is used for
conversion of 2D pictures to a 3D image.

Using Quantitative Analysis
There should be some clear purpose in
mind when one sets out to collect
movement data. This purpose will
determine:
Type of data collected.
Methodology for collection.
Instrumentation for collection.
